I came back in town for Thanksgiving and while we were running errands we got hungry and wanted to try something new. Then I remembered this Indian restaurant that I tried before, even though my husband has not. I visited this place back when it was still smaller and had not expanded yet. I still remember the food being delicious so I was really excited to come back. We went around lunch time and it was not too busy. We decided to do the buffet since I knew they added it after the expansion, but I never got a chance to return until now. The buffet was 19.99 per person. I am not sure if that was a holiday price or the regular price. The food was amazing and full of flavor. I really enjoyed the mushroom masala and the butter chicken. Their goat curry was also very good, the meat did not have any strange taste or smell. I do not usually like goat so I was hesitant, but this one surprised me and I actually liked it. The service was super nice and attentive. The server noticed we did not have naan because they were out at the moment, and when the fresh batch came out he brought it to our table right away. He talked to every table and made sure everyone was doing good, and he also listened to feedback. Everything was great, but me and my husband both felt that having a few more food options would make the buffet even better. The selection was still on the smaller side, although I do understand Indian food can be more expensive and time consuming to prepare. I do wish they had samosas and garlic naan. The regular naan is good but garlic naan always hits different. If you do not want buffet you can also order plates instead. After about thirty minutes I noticed a lot more people started coming in, which means this place is well loved and popular. Overall it was a good experience. The price is a little high for the amount of selection, but the food quality is top tier so it still feels worth dining in. We would definitely come back again read more

The food is so so good! I was so surprised by the quality of their buffet. The server was so nice, I believe his name was Josh? Please give them a try. Their selection is really good for the price, and great rice pudding read more

We tried their chicken biryani today. Perfect flavor, well marinated and juicy chicken. Owner Haneef treats you like a family. Clean restaurant. This place never disappoints us. read more

We really, really like Al-Noor! Despite its inauspicious location, Al-Noor does a wonderful job of preparing tasty and filling Indian cuisine. We've been there there or four times now, and each time we generally pick two vegetarian curries (we're not vegetarians, but their veggie dishes are that tasty!) and some naan. Unless we're cavernously hungry, we'll have enough leftovers for lunch the next day. The service is incredibly friendly and prompt, and we always leave feeling like we had a great meal--and at a very reasonable price point. read more

The food was AMAZING! As everyone said the butter chicken was superb! We also got the mix grill and everything was so flavorful and a large portion! The garlic naan was a great texture! The price point is also perfect! The lady who waited on us is one of the owners and she was super friendly and answered all of our questions about the cuisine! We will definitely be back! read more

Everything about Al-Noor is 5 ! We ordered takeout this time, and it was delicious as usual! The food is so full of flavor and fresh! It's ready about 15-20 minutes after you order depending on what you order because different preparations and cooking procedures take different amounts of time. And, the staff is incredibly nice! And, my husband and I ate on our order for 3 days! So, the value is definitely there. We are fairly new to Indian cuisine, so we try something new every time. My husband likes spicy, but I have to stick to the milder dishes. My best trick to help me with the spicier foods is the warm, fluffy naan bread. Go get some for yourself! read more

This is some of the best Indian food I've had. Although the seating area is small, there is a larger buffet area for lunch time. The service is wonderful and they are great at explaining anything you are not familiar with. read more

There just wasn't much going on here. Friday lunch was charged at the weekend buffet rate and I would have been happier (and paid less) just ordering off the menu at a couple of regular Indian places in town. The service was pleasant enough but not actually sharp. I won't go back. read more

First time eating here. I had to ask the waitress how long they'd been at this location and she said about 2 years which surprised me I had not noticed it before. Granted, I don't live on this side of town in Baton Rouge, but it's literally RIGHT next door to Spectacular Tubers which I go to every couple of months, so I don't know why I didn't notice it before. I think what caught my eye this time around was that they have a sign hanging from the overhang pointing out that they have a lunch buffet. I'm not fully fluent in all Indian dishes although I love curry, so I opted for the lunch buffet. FYI they do not have a buffet for dinner. The price for today (Friday) was $22.95 - same price for Saturday and Sunday lunch buffet. The waitress explained that the buffet Tuesday through Thursday is $19.99 and that they don't have shrimp on the buffet for those days. They are closed on Monday. I love Indian spices and I am always trying to fit more vegetables into my diet. This buffet was awesome for vegetarians or people trying to get real vegetables because they had five different dishes that were all veggies: cauliflower with potatoes, a spinach dish, a zucchini dish, a mushroom dish, and an eggplant dish. Today on the protein side they had fried fish, butterflied fried shrimp, and three different types of chicken. They do also offer a menu for a la carte ordering if you know what you like and want to pipping hot from the kitchen - or just hope to have leftovers to take home. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal, and service was excellent. This is a low key almost diner type atmosphere in so far as the table set up. The restaurant was exceptionally clean, so we're the bathrooms. My only complaint, and this is a common one for all buffets in general, is that some of the dishes were not as hot as I'd like. Nothing was cold, but some were just warm. I forgot to take a picture of the other table where they had one bowl of lettuce / salad fixings, another bowl with some sliced watermelon. They also had a chilled buffet server with mango custard & sliced fresh tropical fruit on top as a dessert for the buffet. The waitress explained that the items on the buffet do change, so if you're looking for something in particular and didn't want to order a la carte, I suggest you phone the restaurant before you head out there wait to see what's actually on the buffet that day. I will certainly be doing that hoping to catch them when they have curry on the buffet line. If you are vegetarian, well spiced food, or just Indian food in general - I highly recommend that you try this restaurant and give them some business. read more

Good food! That's why 4 stars. This place is not fancy but it is clean with good food. I liked everything I ordered with the exception of the strawberry lassie drink, next time I'll just get ice tea . The food wasn't overly spicy but you can order it extra spicy if you want. I had butter chicken and saag paneer which is Spinach with homemade cheese cubes both were delicious and I chose the garlic naan bread which had a lot of flavor. I will go back and try other things as well it was great food. If you don't know where it's at on Coursey it's in with the neighborhood Walmart shopping center and Catty corner to cross the street from my Caine's chicken place. read more

This was so yummy. I love Indian Food. I started with chai tea. Each cup is its own price - no refills. Then I got the gobi Manchurian. This is cauliflower in a sauce that's really good. It also heats up well in an air fryer. Then I got the Mushroom Masala. It was so good. The sauce was a little runny to put on the delish garlic naan, but it was excellent on rice, complete with a spicy kick. read more

We went for the lunch buffet and wow it is amazing. Everything was so delicious and fresh. We will definitely be back! read more

Services was good ! BUT the food was not good at all , I came to try from all the great reviews, but the food did not meet the expectations of the reviews, everything tasted watered down , no flavor at all . The rice and naan was decent . But the rest oh no! I would not come spend my money here I took 4 bites and paid $20-25 for this NO thank you ! It seem overpriced for a buffet with only a few dishes available. read more

Service: 5/5 Food: 5/5 Location/Ambience: 2.5/5 Service: Called in for takeout. Ordered the Butter Chicken and two sides of Garlic Naan. It was ready in 15 minutes. Arrived to pick up my order and was greeted. Paid for order and got my food. It was temperature hot from holding the bag. Food: Got home and opened the bag and the naan is a very large portion. Tasted the Butter Chicken, absolute best in BR. I lived in Houston for 10 years and ate at several Indian restaurants and nothing compares to what I just ate. It was spicy hot, good portion size too (split it with my wife) but not too hot for me. The amount of spice was perfect. Garlic Naan was great too. Location/Ambience: DO NOT let the location fool you! It is a small hole in the wall, which can often times be the best spots. It's tucked away in-between Snap Fitness and WalMart Marketplace. read more

Indian flavors similar to dishes I had in London, England. This is my 3rd visit in 1 week. The Tandoori Chicken is fall off bone delicious. Saag Paneer outlandishly flavorful. I generally love Chicken Tikka Marsala, but this was weakest of all their dishes. It was good, but sauce is a little thin. Rice has Saffron flavor and is very good. I asked for medium spice and they gave me what I desired. This is my go to place for Indian Food in BR bar none. read more

Very good food! Excellent buffet. Price was a bit high for lunch on a Saturday. Will not go back due to high price.

I find their food to be tasty and not overly expensive so worth the drop in on occasion. While they do have some inside seating is rather small and more of a takeout place. It's worth it. read more

Wow! Great service and great food!!!! Definitely will be back and anyone looking for some great Indian food should go also!

This food is delicious. So flavorful. Perfectly spiced. A must try. Everything you order will be amazing but try the Al-Noor Lamb Curry! Service is attentive and fast. read more

Had zero problems with my visit here. Called to order to-go and got the Samosa, Butter Chicken, Lamb Kabobs, and the Garlic Naan . Everything was delicious !! Samosas came perfectly cooked . butter chicken was oily and separated quickly but came with a lot of chicken and when it was mixed it was great . Got plain and Zafrani (i think the one with saffron) rice which was very aromatic and both were good . Lamb kabobs were cooked perfect, seasoned well and soft which i appreciated . Went perfect with the naan dipped in the butter chicken sauce !! read more

Love supporting local small businesses. These folks seem to be very hard working people, making good food. We ordered a goat roganjosh, palak/saang paneer( I forgot which one is the spinach one) and several mango lassi. Delicious, and I'm glad i am able to introduce my kids to international foods without breaking the bank. read more

Very small and intimate restaurant but the kitchen deliveries a lot of flavor. Started the meal with a pipping hot masala chi, nothing better on a cold mourning which was one of the best chai tea that I've had in a long time. I chose their veggie box and it was delicious. Two veggies entree first was chick pea cooked in a wonderful sauce but the other a mushroom dish that was absolutely delicious. The plate came with an onion pickled slaw , rice and naan . The naan earthy , buttery , and plentiful. Everything tasted so fresh , the smell was amazing. read more

Although I was only introduced to Indian food within the last decade, it has quickly become a favorite cuisine. The aromatics used in the food have it smelling as good as it tastes. And the flavors--so unique and tasty in comparison to other cuisines. I have never had bland Indian food. Here at Al-Noor you will find no exception. What is unique is the other non-Indian offerings, including Chinese and fried chicken. On to the best part--not only is the food tasty but the portions are huge--best value I've found for Indian food in the red stick. Lucky for me, it's close to my home (not lucky for my wallet)! We look forward to returning and trying all of the delicious menu items. read more

My daughter and I have been trying different Indian restaurants around town and this is now our number one. The food was amazing and we have leftovers for at least another meal. Can't wait to come back! read more

We ordered four entrées through DoorDash and were thrilled that we chose Al-Noor. The portion size was bigger than expected (plenty of leftovers). The flavors were exceptional and the meat (we had chicken and lamb dishes) was incredibly tender. Will definitely eat here again! read more

Food is good, but have overheard the employees being extremely rude to doordash drivers and customers on multiple occasions. Very weird behavior and atmosphere...one of the employees using racial remarks to a doordash driver was my last straw. Don't think I can continue coming back, which is unfortunate considering the food is delicious. read more

Great food, I really enjoyed eating here. I recommend Goat curry and Chicken tikka Masala. read more

OMG! Don't let the shopping strip location deter you! The food I had today was AMAZING!!! I'm visiting from out of town and had a taste for Indian and decided to give Al-Noor a try. I ordered the chicken saag methiwalaa and it did not disappoint!!! When the dish was served, I was concerned because the portion appeared small. But it was more than enough. As a matter of fact, I couldn't finish the rice and forced myself to finish the chicken because I'm about to travel and can not take home the leftovers. Flavorful, spicy, excellent texture!! I wish I could eat this everyday! Too bad you guys are in Los Angeles but I'll definitely come back the next time I'm in town read more

Without having tried yet the have already won me over. Talked to the chef (owner) who said with advance notice he can make some dishes that adhere to my food allergies. Can't wait to try. Haven't been able to eat Indian in 1+ years and looking forward to cautiously trying again. read more

Some of the best Indian cuisine i have ever had. Happy Custumer. I tried the Gobi Manchurian, Aloo Gobi, Vegetable Butyani and the Chili Paneet. All items were great. Very spicy so please let them know what level of spice you can handle. I'm am very pleased and will be returning read more
